The Öeco-Sachs / Lynch outboard is the first full-power electric boat drive to enter volume production on the world market. It meets the desire of boat owners and boat-hire businesses for a quiet, emission-free craft driven by a powerful and reliable electric motor. Several million small electric trolling motors have been operating successfully for many years, particularly in the USA where they originated.

Extensive Development

Now after long development they are joined by the more powerful Lynch outboard suitable for boats up to 20 metres (60ft) overall length.

Provides Econominal Cruising

The energy efficient Lynch motor - coupled to a large diameter slow-running propeller - is capable of providing very economical cruising, with a high reserve of power and thrust from the large propeller blades for stopping or manoeuvring in emergencies. In terms of thrust the electric outboard is comparable to a 10HP 4-stroke petrol outboard. High energy-efficiency means that a relatively small battery pack of two standard, heavy-duty lead-acid batteries will provide several hours of cruising.
